How come Jesus wants us to let others "see our good works," but then tell us to give, pray, and fast in secret? Post your comments below. Oh, come on Sunday if you're curious to know more. 10am!

"Racism is sin because it is an offense to God." The 2009 General Synod adopted that resolution as part of the RCA's ongoing commitment to be both multiracial and freed from racism. This video provides a fresh approach on how racism offends God.

This Sunday, December 6th, we'll listen to the Song of Mary again (Luke 1:46-55). This time we'll listen to Cisco Gonzalez's voice and version. He is the Director of Student life at Kuyper College and on the preaching team at Madison Square CRC. We are grateful that he's taking the time to lend his voice to guide us in worship.

This past Sunday Pastor Peter preached on Mary's Song (Luke 1:46-55). You can read his version of it at the Pastor's Blog.

As we wait for the coming of Jesus, we'll be celebrating Advent by listening to diverse voices and the Song of Mary. Check out the Pastor's Blog to see the full Invitation.

Well, we're back online. Since the last listing we've been trying to make sense of grace, of baptism, and of sanctification. This coming Sunday, Nov. 22nd, is Christ the King Sunday and we'll be trying to make sense of "covenant." Is it only an underground group in a Dan Brown novel? Come to worship on Sunday at 10am (breakfast at 9:15)!
